Expansion and The Kentucky Theatre Present PSYCHEDELIC CINEMA: My Morning Jacket's OKONOKOS Live Concert Film
THU, AUG 22 | $12 (Doors @ 7PM, Film @ 8PM)
The newly remastered 4K version of the acclaimed 2006 live concert film captures a blistering two-hour performance from Kentucky's own My Morning Jacket's November 2005 two-night stand at the legendary Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, mixed in 5.1 audio.
Okonokos encapsulates MMJ at a peak moment in their career. Filmed and recorded on November 11-12, 2005 during the Z tour, the set draws heavily from that record and its predecessor, It Still Moves, for a scorching and exhilarating live concert experience which Spin Magazine described as "an aesthetic-and-career-defining set...the album they were destined to make." Features "Gideon", "One Big Holiday", "Lowdown", “Wordless Chorus”, "Golden", "Steam Engine", and "Mahgeetah".
